Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 559

Andre probed again, and Molly swiftly retorted, "Come on, everyone knows your wife loves money."

Andre was well aware, but cash wasn't cutting it this time. So he tried a different angle, "What about a gift?"

It took Jade, racking her brain, to come up with that suggestion.

...

The little tyke was full from his bottle and started getting fussy, not drinking properly, craning his neck to get a better view of the gossip his parents were engrossed in.

Andre noticed Mia's interest in the crystal glass but realized she was too proud to examine it in front of him.

So, he made an excuse to leave the bedroom, "I need to sort out some work in the study."

Mia nodded, feigning indifference.

No sooner had he left than she plopped the baby on the bed and quickly unwrapped the gift box, pulling out the finely crafted crystal glass. She pondered over it in her hands, "Buddy, your dad didn’t get swindled, did he?"

The little one cooed in response.

"What's so pricey about this thing?" Mia was puzzled.

A glass with a fancy name, "crystal glass," and they dare put a two-thousand-dollar price tag on it.

Mrs. Cedillo made a call to Molly from the Byrne family, seeking clarification, "Molly, what's this glass you recommended to Andre? Could drinking from it make you immortal or something? It's so expensive."

"???"

Mia relayed the situation to her best friend, "It's just a glass, no diamonds, no gold trim. I can't see what's so special about it."

"Mia, did it ever occur to you that maybe Andre hasn’t installed that anti-scam app?"

Molly swore she only mentioned a glass, not a brand name.

Mia replied, "...I'll download it for him tonight."

Studying the pale lavender hue of the glass, Mia figured it would look pretty with an aroma stone inside.

Since her best friend hadn't made the recommendation, Mia guessed based on what she knew of her husband's character. He probably wanted to get her the very best of everything, even a glass.

Remembering the start of their conflict was related to the issue with Molly, Mia inquired with genuine concern, "How are things at the Byrne family?"

"Chad's dragging me to look at wedding dresses."

Mia deadpanned, "Could your Chad be any more intense?"

"He is. He went and ordered the kind of engagement ring a man can only pick out once in his life, from that fancy brand."

Mia was once again at a loss for words.

Molly sought updates too, "Mia, how's the atmosphere at home these days?"

"Pretty sour."

Molly immediately understood her best friend was hinting for her to keep the peace at the Byrne household, "Thanks."

"Don't mention it."
